Abstract
Chapter III examines how a firm's financial decisions are influenced by both its corporate tax status as well as the personal tax status of its particular investors. Using the Tax Reform Act of 1986 as exogenous shock to firms' tax status, I model how a firm with a specific investor tax clientele should react to such changes if it sought to minimize its clientele's overall tax burden. The model is tested and shows strong evidence that firms indeed minimize taxes in a way that recognizes their investors' particular tax clientele.
